Biography

I’m a jovial coder, beer drinker, coffee aficionado, bicyclist, guitar player, gamer and nerd among other things. I work extensively with startups and mid-size companies, currently employed at Basho, the makers of the open source Riak Database and other things. I live and breath the tech industry and always look for other ways to share what I do and what I love with the tech community.

Cheers!

Sessions for this user

I'll be covering the technology that is now being used for the largest scale systems and how that technology is used, how it is connected, and how it keeps large volumes of data available for everything from genomic research, mass e-commerce processing or keeping medical data safe from loss.

Proposals for this user

I'll be diving deep to discuss the benefits of living well to do better programming. I'll talk about the statistics and data behind dropping the auto-dependent mindset and stepping into the world of cycling, meetups, urban living, clean eating and ways to dramatically improve your innovation, entrepreneurial activities and why these things are connected. As I like to say, "How to get and stay at 100%."

Proposals for this user

I'll be taking a deep dive into cloud architectures and how to build applications, generally at the PaaS level mixed with a little IaaS, to get people rolling with high velocity, high quality, and without the need to worry about the little things.

This session will cover the major advances of platform as a service technology, what's available in the OSS space to enable faster, easier, higher quality software development cycles in the cloud. The session will complete with a demo of PAAS technology in use, deploying a highly scalable, distributed & dispersed web application.
